Changes to Structural Triage Terminology

Following advice from the State Solicitors Office, a change has been made to the terminology used to describe structures during triage for Urban Defence. Structures should now be described as either “Un-defendable” or “Possibly Defendable”. This changes from previously describing properties as “Defendable”, which implied the loss of a property as being the failure of the defending crews, rather than any other adverse circumstances.

The Field Guide and Standard Operating Procedures have been updated to reflect this new terminology.

The latest Mundaring Fire School calendar is attached.

The survey asking for preferred dates for the Annual Dinner/Lunch has shown Saturday the 12th of October to be the most preferred date. Arrangements are under way for this event, so please keep this date free.
